Tut, tut, tut. Talk about making it on to the ‘naughty’ list.

A Santa Steam Train caused travel havoc in Dublin today, after DART services were delayed for over an hour and a half following a mechanical failure on the festive train.

The train originally stalled between Greystones and Bray, and then stopped for 90 minutes at Dalkey, causing the stoppage of southbound DARTs, which had a huge knock-on effect on other services.

The train later got going again, but used diesel not steam to finish its journey and order was restored in the capital once more.
